  • checkedc

    Checked C is an extension to C that lets programmers write C code that is guaranteed by the compiler to be type-safe. The goal is to let people easily make their existing C code type-safe and eliminate entire classes of errors. Checked C does not address use-after-free errors. This repo has a wiki for Checked C, sample code, the specification, and test code.

    Checked c is interesting, but I think a more fruitful avenue would be verifast[0]. Verifast is completely compatible with existing c codebases (so you can keep using your existing c compiler), and is able to verify more interesting behaviour than checked c. [1] finds that it would have prevented 5 of 50 recent CVEs in FreeBSD, whose causes include unlocked memory accesses, fd leaks, and bad use of reference counts.
